Frequently asked questions about realdomains.dot

Can a fintech founder use .PAY for a branded payment page for point-of-sale payments?

Yes. A fintech founder can use .PAY for a branded payment page if the name is available and registry rules are met. Search the label and choose trademark fast-track or pre-order through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/.

Can I start the SMD process for realdomains.dot if my trademark is in another country?

Yes. The TMCH accepts qualifying marks from many jurisdictions, so a validated foreign trademark can yield an SMD to claim realdomains.dot, provided it matches the realdomains.dot string. NicNames honours that SMD regardless of the issuing country for realdomains.dot. Begin your priority registration at https://domain.pay/register.

As an ecommerce brand, can a reserved .PAY name become available later?

The .PAY registry may reserve, block, withhold or later release certain names under its policies. Check your exact label at domain.pay: https://domain.pay/domains. If the name is unavailable, choose an alternative from the catalog or search another label.

Does realdomains.dot cost the same as a typical .com?

Pricing for realdomains.dot reflects the .PAY namespace rather than the commodity .com market, with a standard pre-order of $100 through domain.pay. Trademark-priority registration is also available. See current figures on /pricing before you commit.

Can I use nameservers and DNS like other domains with .PAY for BNPL checkout?

After registration, plan DNS, SSL, redirects, security monitoring and payment-page controls as you would for a production domain. Start by securing the .PAY name through domain.pay: https://domain.pay/register. A domain alone does not make a checkout secure.

Availability is checked live and re-verified before payment. Pre-orders are first-day registration attempts — registration is not guaranteed; 100% credit toward another domain (or 80% cash refund) if unsuccessful.
